Sharp: New Strong2 LCD with LED back light
With the introduction of the new 10.4-inch display LQ104V1DG62, Sharp presents a fully industry-compatible TFT LCD with LED back light for the first time. Like all displays in the Strong 2 series from Sharp, the new industry display from Sharp is also characterised by extreme resilience. The special housing design means that the new industry TFT LCD withstands accelerations of up to 14.7 m/s in the range of 57 - 500 kHz during the vibration test. In the standard impact test, the display can withstand impacts with acceleration values of up to 490 m/s without damage when switched off. Furthermore, Sharp has designed the housing specifically for the LED back light and equipped it with dedicated heat management: Heat conductors transport the dissipation heat of the LEDs to the rear outer side of the panel where it can be easily given off into the environment. Like all the other displays in the series, the new LED back light variant of the proven Strong2 LCDs therefore fulfils the full industry specification with an operating temperature of -30°C to 80°C and a lifecycle of 50,000 hours. With conventional LCDs with LED back light, it is frequently only the CCFL cartridge that is replaced with an insert fitted with LEDs that is unable to give off the heat into the environment easily. Compared to the CCFL variant, conventional LCDs with LED back light are therefore mostly designed for an operating temperature limited to the upper range and have a shortened lifecycle. The LQ104V1DG62, however, combines the high resilience required of industrial applications with the benefits of a LED back light. These include, among others, the prompt response characteristics of the LEDs even at very low temperatures and excellent dimmability over the entire brightness range of the LEDs. A special anti-reflection coating reduces light reflexes of the incidental light. The new TFT LCD is thus particularly suitable where tough application conditions meet rapidly changing light conditions, e.g in outdoor areas for forest, farming and construction machinery and in transport. Another important advantage of the LED back light is the low volt operating voltage. This means that the high-voltage converter required for CCFL lamps is no longer necessary. Reduced system complexity and the new Sharp industry LCD can be used where high voltage is restricted, e.g. in areas where there is a risk of explosion. These usually includes production sites where large quantities of dust occurs such as flour-processing plants.
